There is a base cell containing 3 digits XYZ (Z is the elimination digit) and two other cells containing XZ and YZ at two other corners of a rectangle, and a fourth cell containing Z plus other digits at the fourth corner of the rectangle.
There is a Strong link on Z in a row or column passing through the fourth cell (shown as a column Strong link in the exemplar by cells marked / [they can't contain Z] ).
With this pattern Z can be eliminated in the column or row passing through the base cell in the cells marked -Z in the exemplar.
